TO FACE PERJURY CHARGE
Will Face Perjury Charge for Squashing Facts Surrounding Shooting
Dan Cupid won and lost a battle in the police court, Tuesday, when Miss Ruth Dorsey refused to testify against her sweetheart, Charles G. Lee, 1612 Half street, southwest, who was accused of shooting at her, but was herself arraigned for contempt of court and will probably face charges of perjury.
The young woman was picked up by Officers E. W. Gore and M. R. Creel of the No. 4 Precinct when she was found lying on Half street, southwest, when they rushed to the scene of a shooting about 4 a.m., Tuesday morning. She was rushed to the Emergency Hospital where she was treated for a brush wound of the side. There she named Lee as the man who had shot at her four times following an argument.
Changes Mind
Lee when arraigned pleaded guilty to three charges: carrying a deadly weapon, firing the same in the city limits, and assault with intent to do bodily harm.
The prosecution struck a snag when they called the young woman to the stand, however, when after one look at her lover, she declared that he had not harmed her.
Judge Gus A. Schuddt looked up suddenly as though he doubted his own care. He turned to the clerk and requested that she be sworn again.
"You are now under oath to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth," he said. "Now tell me what this man did to you." "Nothing," said the girl.
"Kindly place her in the prisoner's docket and see that the District Attorney prepares a case against her," said the judge. They will both be held in $1,000 bond for a further hearing." The young woman could not by all of the persuasion of the District Attorney be induced to tell her story of the assault on the witness stand after three hours had been consumed by other cases. She with her affinity were returned to the lockup together. Neither spoke to the other during the entire session.
BROTHERHO'D TO HOLD FACT-FINDING MEET
According to A. Philip Randolph, president and general organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, a Policy Committee Conference will be reld in St. Louis from the 10th to 13th of February.
The purpose of this conference is to appraise and evaluate the experience, program tactics, strategy and policies that the brotherhood has executed since its inception in 1925 up to the present time. It shall also devise, formulate and work out new plans and policies for more intensive educational, organizational and agitational work, with a view to advancing the cause of the porters and maids.

It took two days in the United States Branch of the police court to try Wilson Dangerfield on a charge of intoxication, and the case was finally committed to the Probation Department for further investigation by Judge Gus A. Schult Tuesday.
Dangerfield was arrested Saturday night at Four-and-a-half street an. Maryland avenue when he was found staggering. He told police that he was waiting for a street car, although there was no street car stop sign near. At the Fourth President station officers declared he was unable to walk a straight line.

SENATOR ASKS SPECIAL PROBE
SENATOR ASKS SPECIAL PROBE
Senator Walter E. Edge, Republican, of New Jersey, is conducting an investigation into the alleged illegal search of the home of Richard Blount, an old employee in the Senate document room, by Federal prohibition agents and police from the fourth preempt last Saturday.
According to Mr. Blount, the officers broke into his home, refused to show him a warrant but proceeded to search the premises for liquor. After they had ransacked his home and failed to find any liquor on the premises, they sat down in his home and made out a "John Doe" warrant, he charges.
Mr. Blount lives at 323 Third street, southwest. He is respected by members of the Senate employees who know him.

key, he was not sufficiently sober to be liberated until more than five hours had passed.
Dangerfield changed lawyers twice during the course of the trial and finally brought his wife on the stand who testified that she had never seen him intoxicated during the ten years she had known him. His employer also testified as to his temperate habits. Gus Schuldt decided that if the prisoner was drunk, he got that way on his first drink and took his personal bond and turned him over to the Probation Officer.
FARM AND HOME OWNERSHIP

85 AUTOS IN PROCESSION TO GRAVE
Telegrams From All Sections of Nation Express Condolences to Deceased Leader
Traffic was tied up for more than a quarter of an hour on Monday afternoon by the funeral procession bearing the remains of the late Charles P. Ford, Grand Master of Masons, of the District of Columbia, from the Asbury M.E. Church, Eleventh and K streets, northwest, to Lincoln Memorial Cemetery. In spite of the chilling blasts, which made the followers of the beloved Masonic leader button their coats tightly about them, more than 500 men and women, representing all branches of the Masonic Order as well as all other fraternal organizations in the District of Columbia, weathered the near-zero weather to pay their last tribute of respect at the grave of the man who gave his life in the work of trying to realize a dream which would have been an inspiration to the entire Masonic world and the Negro race as well. Special details of motorcycle and foot patrolmen were present at the church to direct traffic and provide accommodations for the automobiles which bore the family and fraternal society members. There were 84 machines in all according to actual count.
Lav In State
The body lay in state at the church from Sunday until the funeral services at 1 o'clock Monday. Scottish Rite Kadosh services were conducted by Jonathan Davis Consistory at midnight on Sunday. A gold grand master's collar, containing all of the symbolic emblems of the Masonic order, was placed around Mr. Ford's neck. This collar was designed to be presented (Continued on page 2)

Prescription Blanks Get Quintet of Medical Men in Toils of the Law
Five physicians are being held in bonds of $500 each for their appearance before United States Commissioner Needham C. Turnage on February 5. They are charged with issuing prescriptions without making the physical examination required by law, prescribing more than one pint of distilled spirits for internal use within days to the same person, violating the terms of permit by making false reports and returns.
The doctors named in the warrants sworn to by Prohibition Inspector Roland L. Burroughes are: Dr. William A. Goodloe, 1915 Seventh street northwest; Dr. Contee Cook, 707 Rhode Island avenue, northwest; Dr. I. B. Horn, 1701 Second street, northwest, and Dr. Pinyon L. Cornish 1007 Irving street, northwest. Dr. Charles A. Tignor, of 473 Florida avenue, northwest, was arrested before United States Commissioner Needham C. Turnage last Friday on a charge of violating the Harrison narcotic law. Hearing was continued until February 4.
Rumors Prevalent
All sorts of weird stories are current concerning the arrests of all the physicians. Local members and officers of the National Medical Association are reluctant to state whether they will take any action in behalf of the accused physicians although they express belief that discrimination is shown in the wholesale arrest of Negro medical men with no similar drive being conducted against whites.
The arrest of Dr. Tignor recalls (Continued on page 2)
LOCAL COMPOSER SCORES IN BAL- TIMORE RECITAL
BALTIMORE, Md.—Wellington Adams, gifted composer of Washington, D. C., and a Wanamaker prize winner, opened his Eastern tour Friday evening in the Providence Baptist Church, Fremont and Edmondson avenues, before an appreciative audience who before the program had progressed very far discovered that they were hearing a master of melody.
Mr. Adam's opening numbers were settings to poems of Paul Laurence Dunbar and were full of lyrical beauty. The sacred pieces following were marked with deep spiritual significance, gems of the kind fit for any chair to sing. The "Three Miniature Dances—Indian, Filipino and Negro" were characteristically rhythmic and colorful, while his marches were excellent. "Your beautiful deep brown eyes" (ballad); "In My Midnight Dreams" and "Sweet Ecestacy" (concert) were charming in their arrangement. His "Negro Airs" and the spirituals caught the fancy of his hearers, especially "Go Wash in That Beautiful Pool," a spiritual of sublimeness and marked fervor which Miss Shirley G. McCanns, director of music at Morgans College, sang most artistically. It won great applause. His South African contributions were unusually, fine and instantly won acclaim. The "Dance Fingue" was really stirring yet beautiful and "Taru," a piano transcription, was a rare production of its kind. Mr. Adams closed his program with his composition that recently won a Wannaker prize.
A Stage Career Offered to Tribune Readers
Miss Ollie Alexander and Miss Vera Bracken have made good on the stage as dancers and a similar opportunity was offered this week to comedy readers of the Tribune by Maurice Dancer, New York theatrical producer, who plans to develop one of his famous dancing girl units here.
"Washington," he said, "is noted for its beautiful girls, and if a company of eight or more can be organized here, I will send one of my best dancing instructors to train them free of charge."
Prospective chorines are urged to send their names, addresses and photos to Jack Lytell, theatrical editor of the Tribune, and they will be forwarded to Mr. Dancer's Broadway offices. (See story on Theatrical Page.)
Flu Prevents War on Satan in Virginia Town
SCHOOL BOARD KEEPS BITTERNESS MARKS MUDRIVE OUT OF SYSTEM SO-LIT ELECTION;
WARRENTON, Va. — The flu went into coohots with the devil to frustrate the cause of righteousness in this town last week when on account of widespread illness the revival which was scheduled to begin on last Sunday under the leadership of Rev. R. D. Grymes, of Washington, has been indefinitely postponed. It will possibly not be held until late spring, at which time, it is hoped, the ser-
(Capital News Service, Inc.) On the ground that the proposed school committee might be looked upon as a coercive body, the Board of Education at its meeting last Wednesday refused to sanction the proposed plan for the Community Chest Drive in the public schools. The plan suggested was that the school officials designate a committee who would carry on the drive among school children, teachers, and employees of the public schools. Dr. Charles F. Carusi, president of the board, while declaring himself heartily in accord with the drive, opposed the campaign project, declaring that he disliked the idea of "setting up collection machinery in the schools." Dr. Carusi believes that the employees can be reached just as effectively in some other way, without the impression being given that they are being forced to contribute to charity. Inasmuch as the request of Dr. Georgianna Simpson, under date of November 10, that the Board of Education take some steps to stop the growing evil of soliciting funds from the teaching personnel of divisions 10-13 for various activities, received little or not satisfactory action, the present attitude of the board seems to be a repudiation of its former stand.

The Mu-So-Lit Club held its annual election of officers at the club house last Friday evening. It was marked by bitterness. Dr. Daniel I. Renfro was elected president to succeed George Henry Murray. Morrissey S. Koonce and Louis R. Mehlinger were elected vice presidents. Dr. A. M. Curtis, Perry W. Howard, Mortimer M. Harris, and D. B. Price Hurst were elected members of the board of governors. John T. Risher, William H. Burrell and Capt. Roscoe C. Clayton were elected members of the house committee.
HAYES SCORES IN FLORIDA RECITAL
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Roland Hayes sang to more than two thousand persons of both races in the new A. and M. College auditorium Saturday evening. More than a hundred automobiles together with railroad brought the elite and cultured of the race from every accession of Florida and South Georgia. Mr. Hayes, a usual, captivated his audience from the start and held it throughout the entire program. Several hundred persons of both races remained to greet him on the platform after the performance. Following the recital the race guests gathered in the spacious college dining room which had been cleared for two hours delightful reception and dance. The popular A. and M. College radio broadcasting orchestra furnished music for the occasion. Old citizens say that never before in the history of Florida has there gathered such an array of its best race citizens.
BOY, GIRL DROPPED FOR KISSING; STUDENTS RILED

It sent a thousand students into a heat of passion, when one of the girl students was suddenly hustled off home after a hearing before Dean Slowe, Dean of Women, after it was reported that she had kissed Louis Coates, a basketball star, good bye, when he was leaving for a game with Hampton, Friday night.

"BAD AIM IS NO EXCUSE", RULING Man Given Long Term for Shooting at Another Whom He Did Not Hit
Allen Mosby was sentenced to serve 10 years in prison by Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy in criminal division of the District Supreme Court last Saturday. Mosby was convicted on a charge of assault with a dangerous weapon. In the course of a fight with Guy Baltimore on October 28, Mosby fired four shots at his opponent but none of them took effect. Mosby's plea that he did not hit Baltimore and therefore no actual assault had been committed was of no avail. The court ruled that a man's bad aim did not change the thoughts in his mind and that Mosby was thinking murder although he didn't commit it.

The girl, a junior, was called from her classes to the office of Dean Lucy Slowe at 10 a.m., Wednesday morning. At 3:10 p.m. she was packed and en route to her home. The boy involved was not suspended.
Trouble Brews
The student body was unaware of the suspension, and was shocked when knowledge of the affair crept out. Whisperings began to circle the campus each having a different version. Students huddled in groups all over the campus and in dormitories. A hurried meeting of the student council was called. A meeting of the student body was held in Rankin Chapel, About 250 students attended. The sentiment of the meeting was that nothing would be done to embarrass the university. A committee was appointed to wait on President Mordecai Johnson.
Storm Gymnasium
During the meeting in the chapel, someone mentioned the fact that a basketball game was to be played early in the evening between Howard and Union. Immediately the crowd, which was now about 350 students, broke up and started for the gymnasium. So tense was the feeling that the game was held up for three hours as the determined students awaited the report of the committee who was then closed with the president.
Tables and a piano were placed in the middle of the floor to prevent the game from being called. Union players twice tried to gain access to the floor, but they were forced off by the angry students.

years old, a chimney-sweep,’ of

John P. McMahon Saturday in Po-

and substantial ground for dis-
missing the charges,
Mr, Seott said the accused was
retained to clean the ice from a

at Nineteenth and L streets, north-
west, on Friday, He carried sey-
eral ‘bricks and rope in a gunny-
sack on his back, wore a heavy
overcoat and clumsy _ hipboots
when he climbed an icy fire escape
four stories to the roof.
“Now anybody that can climb
a fire escape with all that stuf
on his back just can't be drunk,
your honor,” Mr. Scott exclaimed.
While he was at work on the
roof, some boys threw a heavy
piece of ico at hm, which missed
its mark and crashed through the
roof of a taxicab on the street be-
low. Policemen then arrested him,
and accused him of throwing a

President Jolson, who took the
matter in hand, urged students to
prevail upon the delinquent doc-

according to Dean Balloch, refused
to pay the obligation out of the
school treasury because it would
establish a bad precedent for the
university and make the school li-

Near Panic
A near panic was caused when
@ group of male students rushed
the fuse box and threw the gymna-

minutes elapsed before level mind-

Fisher, Zerta Steptoe, Iona Hawk-
ins and James Trotman, who had
been to call on President Johnson,
returned and made their report.
The dismissals ‘in themselves
were not the main. issues involved
according to student leaders. The
protest, according to these students
is on the arbitrary powers of offi-
cials to dismiss a student without
& proper hearing. The students
demanded that a committee be ap-
pointed to hear such cases and
they asked that the girl be rein-
stated.
‘The dismissal of the girl
they contended reflected upon her
character and made it seem that
she was guilty of moral turpitude,
while, according to the students,
her act was a spasmodic outburst
in full view of the students and
had been overlooked by all as being
of no particular significance.

Neglect in Many Forms Cause Child Downfall
Mrs. Eula Gray, for 14 Years a Social Worker, Says Adults Invite Incorrigibility
Carelessness is the word that Mrs. Eula Gray, veteran juvenile probation officer, used to describe the cause of child delinquency in Washington.
Carelessness, said Mrs. Gray, can mean neglect of any kind and likes a multitude of forms which act disasterously against the child.
music lovers greeted this well-known club which has given so willingly of their time and talent when called upon to serve for a worthy cause.
REV. IMES IMPRESSES
HOWARD I. STUDENTS
Neglect of the home by the parents is the outstanding form of areelessness that always has a deterrimental effect upon the children. In many cases she admitted many parents are forced to work out and therefore cannot give their children the proper attention. In this case social agencies are guilty of carelessness if they permit the child to run the streets unsupervised. The schools and teachers are equally guilty of neglect when they fail to inquire into the home life of the children and see that they have the proper environment after school hours.
Most cases in which small boys are arraigned in court are caused by dealers displaying articles of merchandise in places easily accessible and tempting to small boys. The desire to steal might never enter their minds she said were not these goods displayed out front with no one to guard them. Mrs. Gray heartily endorsed the attitude of Judge Kathryn Sellers who branded newspaper honor system racks as a menace to youth as an inducement to steal. This, Mrs. Gray declared, is one of the forms of carelessness that should be curbed.
Automobile Carelessness
Thefts of automobiles for joy rides are most prevalent among boys ranging from 14 to 17. Mrs. Gray said. These could be reduced to a minimum if the drivers would but stop to lock their machines when they leave them. Boys are more mischievous and adventuresome than dishonest. Most of these cases reveal they would not deliberately steal the car if they found it securely locked. Mrs. Gray was the first colored social worker appointed in the city of Washington and has served at her post for the past 14 years. Her work is confined mostly to delinquent girls. Girls, she said, are seldom brought in on charges of theft and destructive acts as boys are. Their misdemeanors are generally of a moral nature and are traceable directly to unsympathetic home conditions. At the wrist
the her department is searching for two girls of 14 who ran away from home. Parents who are too strict are just as careless as parents who are too lenient, she declared, because the latter does not take time to study the temperaments of the daughter. The incorrigible boys are placed under the supervision of J. J. Johnson and T. M. Settles. There are 30 social workers among colored people in the city.

REV. IMES IMPRESSES HOWARD U. STUDENTS
The Howard student body was greatly impressed in the several addresses of the Rev. William Lloyd Imes, pastor of St. James Presbyterian Church of New York City. Rev. Imes was the preacher at Howard during the week of prayer of Colleges, which concluded Thursday, January 24. The youthfulness of the speaker, his thorough preparation, and wealth of experience in addressing college students were important factors in his appeal to the Howard audience. The effect of the endeavor was strongly manifested in the several group discussions held on the various days in which student speaker took the leading part. There is not the least doubt that the week of prayer has had a most helpful influence upon the spiritual life of the university.

3000 JOBLESS BATTLE POLICE IN INDIAN CITY
LAHORE, India (CNS) Jan. Police at Lahore charged a demonstration of over 3,000 unemployed ex-soldiers, who were marching on the Governor's House, with the avowed intention of demanding that the officials secure their relief. The Anglo-British authorities panic-struck at the determination of the marchers ordered police to charge the column as it advanced towards the mansion through the streets. Unrest throughout the Punjab, by nature one of the richest provinces of India, is being fanned by the rapid growth of unemployment, and especially by the brutality of the police towards those seeking relief.

HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Jan.
23- An exciting game of basketball from the first whistle to the final gun was witnessed in the Hampton Institute gymnasium when Hampton's Blue and White basketteers crashed through a nip and tuck affair to whip the Howard University five 23-21. It was a thrilling fray which pitched an atmosphere of tenseness. It was sonly lifted when the timer's gun fired and allowed the surplus energy of the spectators to go up in the form of yells, screaming and shouts.
Fully three minutes elapsed before either team of nervous players were able to register a score. Neith's group of rooters dared to settle back in comfort for fear that the unexpected would happen.
The last half found a fighting Hampton team and also a fighting Howard team on the floor. It was early in the half that Captain Taylor shot a foul and tied the score. From that point on it was Hampton in the lead, but never any more than four points to the good. Only two minutes to play and the score 22-21 in favor of Hampton, a have blazed glory for their names, have blazed glory for their name, but instead a foul was committed and Hampton's lead was sent up to a safer level—and so ended one of the most thrilling clean, hard fought, and close games that

FROE WON'T HAVE TO GET BOARD SANCTION FOR EXPENDITURES
A proviso in the District of Columbia appropriation bill making it necessary for the Recorder of Deeds to get the approval of the commissioners of the District of Columbia prior to expending any part of the appropriation for salaries and expenses of his office was stricken from the bill in the House last Wednesday on a point of order made by Representative Carl G. Bachman, Republican, of West Virginia.
The accounts of the office of the Recorder of Deeds are audited every three months by the Comptroller General of the United States, but Arthur G. Froe, the Recorder of Deeds got into a controversy with Comptroller General John R. McCarl regarding increased salary payments. The subcommittee decided that if the accounts of the Recorder's office were audited by the auditor for the District of Columbia, Mr. Froe would not have found himself in the situation in which he did.

She urged a closer affiliation between the mothers and their daughters in order to assure the mothers of their daughters' confidence. "This affiliation will serve as a remedy for many social ills prevalent among girls of today," Mrs. Marshall asserted.

ACTOR ENDS ACT WITH SUICIDE
HAVANA, Jan. 22. — A stage cannon, loaded with real shot, dramatically ended the life of a Negro actor known only as "Baltimore," and police today believed that he had chosen the climax of his act to commit suicide.
"Baltimore" stood before the cannon, as he had done hundreds of times before in the Miami Follies minstrel show. There was a flare as the gun was touched off and a dull boom and the actor dramatically fell. As the curtain descended, the audience applauded what seemed to them to be a good bit of acting. While the shouts of approval still sounded from the house, "Baltimore" dragged his shot-torn body to the wings and died.
Police at first suspected that the cannon had been loaded by some person other than the actor. They later learned from the owner of the show that "Baltimore" always insisted on charging the cannon himself for his act.

VA. STATE HALTS
ST. PAUL 41-21
St. Paul's fighting Tiger hasketters fell before the dazzling attack of the Blue and Orange Hiltoppers in a hotly contested game here Thursday, 41 to 21.
Going into the second half with the score, 15-6 against her, St. Paul made a desperate bid to challenge the clock-like team work of State. State used the last five minutes of the game in practicing the eternal "freezes" and the crowd went wild over the pretty floor work and passing of the five.
State's next home game is on Feb. 2 when Bricks Junior College will be their opponent. On the trip into North Carolina Bricks was defeated by the score of 21-5.

Competition Forces Actors to Study Harder and Develops Real Talent, Says Producer
The Vitaphone is doing two things, according to Maurice Dancer, associate member of the Dancer Theatrical Enterprises of New York. It is crowding incompetent actors off of the stage and is bringing to the fore those among the race who possess real talent.
The Vitaphone and Movietone are forcing performers to study harder in order to survive because with the best talent available performing in the cheaper houses the audiences of today are not too satisfied with hodge podge overnight shows.
Meeting the Situation
The theatres are meeting this situation by the presentation policy. They pick out the best talent they can find and keep them intact putting the best material at their commands and relieving them of the worry of jumping from place to place.
The producers are meeting the situation by developing good teams, quartets and choruses that are trained to work together. From $40 to $50 per week are paid to chorus girls who have been working together for a long time until they can do their dance routine like clock work while single chorus girls receive but $15 and $20. The famous "Just a Minute Girls," headed by Maude Russell, now appearing in Earl Dancer's "Ebony Showboat" is the most successful of these combinations. The Dancer brothers plan to develop from

"DISPUTED WOMAN"
1920
NORMA TALMADGE in "The Woman Dipputed" a United Artists Sound Picture at the Republic, starting Saturday.
"RANSOM" DUNBAR THRILLER NEXT WEEK
San Francisco furnishes the locale of Columbia's "Ransom," which is to be the attraction at the Dunbar Theatre on Wednesday and Thursday. It is a gripping melodrama with unusual twists. The action takes place in the famous old Chinatown of the West Coast city and at a U. S. Government laboratory. Sinister plots, craft, stealth and cunning are matched against American wit and pluck. These elements afford moments of thrilling suspense, tense dramatic action and many surprises. The plot is worked into a smashing climax in which a young chemist faces unknown foes in an Oriental rat-hole to save the woman he loves.
Lois Wilson has one of the most colorful roles in her varied career and is ably supported by Edmund Burns, William V. Mong, Blue Washington, James Leong and Jackie Combs. George B. Seitz is author and director of the production.
Norma Talmadge in "The Woman Disputed" at The Republic
Norma Talmadge in "The Woman Disputed" will be the feature attraction at the Republique Theatre from Saturday to Wednesday, February 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. In a role which only an actress of her sheer artistry would dare portray, the picture is crammed with some of the most powerful situations ever shown on the screen. The story revolves around a triangle of ftwo men and a girl. Sacrificed by a great love, the girl gives her heart to one man, to another she gives her honor. Your pulse will quicken; you'll smile and cry as you see this inspired drama of a sinner-made saint. To know love, see "The Woman Disputed." Gilbert Roland supports Miss Talmadge. The picture is synchronized with a specially prepared sound and musical accompaniment played by the internationally famous Victor Orchestra.
The first real gaucho picture ever made, "The Charge of the Gauchos," will be shown on Thursday and Friday, February 7 and 8. Jacqueline Logan and Francis X. Bushman are the stars. It is a story of the Argentine, rocking with the fury of riding demons across the blazing pampas. The high spot of the picture is the thundering charge of the Gauchos who, with bolos awhirl, sweep down on the hosts of Spain in the far flung battle of Tucumen which witnessed the overthrow of the Spanish regime in Argentina. There will be a complete change of Vitaphone acts with each feature picture.
John Gilbert and Greta Garbo in "A Woman of Affairs" at the Lincoln Theatre
At the Lincoln Theatre Saturday, Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday will be seen John Gilbert and Greta Garbo in "A Woman of Affairs," assisted by Lewis Stone, Hobart Bosworth, Dorothy Sebastian, John Mack Brown, and Douglass Fairbanks, Jr.
In this picture Miss Garbo has the role of a vivacious, hoydenish and effervescent society girl, of London, which sounds rather different from her previous screen interpretations. The advance word also is that she has altered her style in clothes for this picture.
On Thursday and Friday at the Lincoln Theatre will be seen the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Production "Spies."

Probably that is what "SUNHINE" SAMMY MORRISON, former "Our Gang" star is singing now that his mamma and papa are divorced and they are both fighting for him. Mrs. Morrison said that her husband got mash notes from women all over the country.
Almost every device known to modern popular science is to be seen in "Spies."
"Spies" is described as a dramatic narrative of Continental adventure, realistic and thoroughly scientific, yet imaginative in its treatment. The plot centers about a mysterious character named Haghi, who has a host of private agents scattered about Europe and who governs the destinies of nations from his secret subterranean office.
One of the unusual devices used by this clever criminal is a radio cigar lighted. To the uninitiated this seems an ordinary silver-tipped lighter, placed on a stand near Haghi's desk. By removing one side and adjusting a lever it proves

Cupid Has Jolly Time With Would-be Bridegrooms
If you are hardcoiled enough not to experience the flutterings of the heart and go off into sentimental flights of estacy whenever you hear a rustle of Cupid's wing, you can get quite a kick out of looking over the marriage license applications down at the marriage bureau in the Court house.
First of all you'll notice that most grooms when signing their applications do so in a nervous, scratchy hand: you imagine that they are either rattled for fear the girl will change her mind and leave them stuck for $2.00 or else they are nervous because they have all sorts of horrifying imaginings of what the future holds.
So's Her Old Man
As I stood there enjoying the above mentioned kick a young man nervously approached the clerk. "I plan to get married a week from next Saturday the girl is only eighteen will I have to bring her father?" he asked.
"Yes" said the clerk. "She is under age."
"Well can't I send her old man this blank and let him sign her off? You see they live in Philadelphia and I can't afford to bring them both down here."
The young man left dejectedly when he was assured that this could not be done but the father would have to appear in person and not a moving picture.
Minister's Wife Helps
The ordeal of applying for a license is sometimes lessened by a sympathetic hand. In numerous
WOMAN SAYS MATE BLACKED HER EYE
Mrs. Lillian Nash, an employee of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, has filed suit for a limited divorce from Herbert Nash. She charges him with cruelty.
In her bill of complaint filed through Attorneys Hayes and Davis, Mrs. Nash says that her husband viciously beat her, January 20, blackening her eye and bruising and distorting her face so as to make her unrecognizable. He was arrested for this assault, she states, and he forfeited collateral. Since July, 1928, she claims, he has contributed only $1.20 toward her support. He gave up his job in the Veterans' Bureau voluntarily, she says, but later went to work for his uncle at a gasoline station. The couple was married in War-
The couple was married in Warrenton, Va., December 30, 1923.
Elks Hear Senator Guyer
Congressman U. S. Guyer, of Kansas, delivered the principal address at the social session held last Sunday afternoon at Elks' Home. Other speakers included Martin R. Powell, of the library of the House of Representatives; James S. Chapman, past exalted ruler of Columbia Lodge, No. 85; and F. Preston Williams, master of social sessions. Musical numbers were rendered by the East Washington Male Chorus. Charles A. Cornish served as master of ceremonies.
Grand Exalted Ruler J. Finley Wilson will speak in Baltimore next Thursday evening at the reception given by the Marching Club of Columbia Lodge, No. 85. Following a brief program, the guests will dance in the new auditorium of Monumental Lodge.

She also obtained a license for Perry Chapman, 38, 217½ K street southwest to wed Miss Carrie Taylor of the same address.
Wanted Judge
Henry Parks 27, 406 M street, northwest could not wait to find a preacher to take Miss Helen Thompson, 19, 412 M street, northwest, as his bride but was married by Judge Robert F.Mattingly before leaving the Court house.
Colored—But
James Bryant McNeill, 52, of New York who was married to Mrs. Blanche Thomas, 1600, 13th street, northwest, did not want any mistaken racial identity. So when he signed the space where it said "Colored?" he wrote yes, but of Spanish descent. Mrs. Thomas was also said to be of Spanish descent and has "one dead husband."
Extremes
James E. Ferguson, who gave his age as 22 and added that he will be 23 next August 22, and Miss Ruth Gillis, 19, who will be 20 next November 2, were the youngest couple to wed during the past week.
D. Sumner Williams, 54, and Mrs. Margaree Coydell, 50 were the oldest. Both have been married before.
Second Bowler Suit Dismissed by Court
Second suits brought by the sisters and brother of the late Robert J. Bowler, young attorney who committed suicide in 1926, to set aside deeds of trust on property at No. 1817 Tenth street, northwest, on the ground that their names had been forged to a deed, were dismissed by Justice Peyton Gordon in equity court No. 2, Tuesday.
The first suits to set aside these deeds were dismissed in October last. While the second suits were pending the property was sold at public auction on a foreclosure of the first deed of trust.
Trustees Not Liable In Union Bank Case
The depositors of the defunct Union Laborers Bank cannot recover their losses from the partners, trustees and shareholders, it was in effect ruled by Justice Peyton Gordon in equity court No. 2, Monday.
Justice Gordon held that no creditors of the bank could intervene in the case which had been pending in the District Supreme Court since December, 1924, and that the suit was limited to the four original plaintiffs and the defendants.
The claims of the four plaintiffs totaled only $249.16. The amount of deposits in the bank, for which it was sought to hold the partners, trustees and shareholders individually liable, amounted to more than $44,000.
In order to end the litigation, the defendants paid the original plaintiffs, Susie Moore, Perry W. Howard, Charles D. Freeman, and the Rev. Charles N. Williams, and their suit was dismissed.
Prof. George Gets In More Trouble
An additional six months was added to the District Jail sentence of "Prof." William Anthony George, "voo-doo" doctor, when he pleaded guilty to a charge of practicing medicine without a license before Judge Ralph Given in Police Court, last week. The "professor" was recently sentenced to serve six months in jail and pay a $200 fine or serve an additional six months when convicted of practicing pharmacy without a license. Testimony developed that George sold a woman some "sick powders," which she sprinkled on another colored woman. The second woman consulted the "professor" and he sold her some self-compounded medicine, which, he claimed, would cure her. He was arrested by Detectives Charles Mansfield and Robert Saunders before the "cure" could be affected.
To Purchase New Land For Garnet-Patterson
The purchase by the District government of an additional square of land adjacent to the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School for playground purposes was advocated by first assistant superintendent of schools Garnet C. Wilkinson, who was the principal speaker at a reception tendered to parents by the faculty of the school on Tuesday evening. An interesting program was rendered, which included remarks by Miss Mineola Kirkland, school principal; plays and musical numbers by students; and remarks by Lieutent Colonel West A. Hamilton, temporary chairman. Plans looking to the formation of a permanent parent-teacher organization were formulated. Miss Susie R. Quander was chairman of the faculty committee in charge of program and arrangements for the reception.

A jury in circuit court No. 1, Tuesday, Justice Wendell P. Stafford presiding, awarded Marshall Fletcher, a one-armed man, damages of $750 against Policeman Frank B. Owens, white.

Fletcher testified that Owens accused him of laughing at the manner in which he was directing traffic. When he denied the charge, Owens arrested him, charging him with disorderly conduct and assaulting the arresting officer with his one arm. The charges against Fletcher were dismissed in police court.
Attorney Fred B. Rhodes represented Fletcher.

Two Latin plays were presented to the students by the members of Dr. Anna J. Cooper's Classes in second-year Latin, under the direction of their teacher. On Monday afternoon, "The Bulla" was given both in Latin and in English, by the following puns:
Latin rendering, Frances Archer, Chester Ball, Dolores Hall, Fobola Lewis, Louise Shackelford; English rendering, Araminta Dickerson, Samuel Durham, Marie Perry, Blanche Tolliver, Etieneta Durloo.

Ministers Hear Dr. Winston
President W. J. Winston, of Northern University, Long Branch, N.J., was a speaker at the Baptist Ministers' Meeting, Monday. He told of how his school was crowded out at Rahway, N.J., and how he secured 14 acres of land for the present location, at a price of $55,000.00. There are five buildings on the property, one of which has 26 rooms, all furnished and equipped. He is asking the Baptists north of the Mason and Dixon line to support this school.
PLAN NIGHT FOOTBALL
MONTGOMERY, Ala.-What is probably the first official night football game to be played in the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference has been scheduled by the Alabama State Normal School for Friday night, October 4, here at Cramton Bowl. The Florida A.& M. College Jazz Birds, who provided the opening conference opposition for Alabama State in 1928 and were nosed out just 6-0, will come to Cramton Bowl for this opening game of 1929.
is five classes in the morning and five other classes in the afternoon. We are asking for an eight-room addition, with an assembly hall to this school. There is a petition signed by 101 white people living near this school protesting against this addition and asking that Lovejoy be given over to them for a school since it is a white neighborhood, and move the colored children out across the river over to Deanwood. They do not need this school. They have four in this particular area and could not fill this one at all."
Education Wrong
Speaking on the subject of "The Relation of Church to School," Mr. Wilkinson said "We feel that there is something wrong with public education, or there would not be so much delinquency. The period of greatest delinquency is between 17 and 20 years. The average age of murderers is 22 years. With these facts before us, we feel there is something radically wrong with the home and that the church may be partly responsible for this condition.
"Fourteen thousand superintendents of schools made an investigation among the children themselves and reached the conclusion that there are four fundamental objects that should be included in every school curriculum. The children want:
1. A better understanding of and appreciation for self.
2. A better understanding and appreciation of nature.
3. A better understanding and appreciation of organized society.
4. A better understanding and appreciation of the law of force and of love.
These are the four major objects of education."

MINISTERS JOIN SCHOOL FIGHT
Committee of Nine Appointed by Baptists to Force School Justice
A committee of nine was appointed by the Baptist Ministers' Conference to co-operate with Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson to aid in the fight to retain the Lovejoy School as a colored unit following a meeting Monday at the Florida Avenue Baptist Church.
The committee will make a plea for the insertion of the items regarding the health school, Lovejoy, Giddings and the old business high school, into the appropriation bill by the Senate Sub-committee. The committee was appointed as follows: Revs. G. P. Nichols, A. Sales, J. H. Randolph, W. B. Marsh, J. C. S. Holloman, C. P. Harris, A. Anderson, W. A. Gray, and J. L. Loving.
Mr. Wilkinson was scheduled to deliver an address to the ministers on Monday on the subject of "The Relation of the Church and School. Having come from the committee room on appropriations the injustice of the provisions of the bill as it came from the House, was fresh in his mind. He said that if certain provisions pass it means that the Federal Government places its stamp of approval upon racial proscription, which would insult a certain group of our citizenry. "Gentlemen, it is un-American, undemocratic and un-Christian," he asserted. Concerning Lovejoy school, Mr. Wilkinson said: "For sixty-one years this has been a colored school. We are overcrowded. We have ten classes on half time; that

It would be a commendable token of appreciation for Dr. Woodson's work and sacrificial service which has characterized his efforts; for the various schools and centers of literary effort to raise a contribution and send to Dr. Woodson, to apply on the accumulated accounts of about $4,000.

This city, the birthplace of slang, has launched to the world the yell "Whoopee!" and has popularized the word inveigle. For those who use slang, no conversation is complete without using the word. Common phrases are: "He inveigled me"; "you can't inveigle me"; etc. It's typical of all slang—it's a bit of nothing that has everybody going, and will soon be discarded like the recent phrase, "You're just that type."

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1929
ADIPLOMAT IN THE CAPITAL
There are two institutions of higher education in Washington. One is Howard University and the other is the average barber shop. Men who hang around barber shops can tell you most anything you want to know. They are authorities on things—they are.
At Howard, if reports are correct, they teach you stuff out of books, or they assume to. In barber shops they teach you things that they just know naturally. They can speak with finality on most any subject you bring up. Politics, economics, agriculture, automobiles, the best population of cities, the height of buildings, mountains, the length of rivers, shoelaces and bridges. Their knowledge is inexhaustible. They are at their best when discussing the Scriptures. Their knowledge of things biblical is simply uncanny. By the Bible they can prove anything or disprove it. Men who hang around barber shops are generally college graduates. They hold diplomas from the school of hard knocks and from their conversation on things of the world you know that they learned their lessons well.
While men who hang around barber shops seem to know something about everybody's else business you never know much about theirs. They talk on every subject but themselves and how they make a living. They generally have money to serve their purposes. You wonder where they get it. You wonder where they accumulated their knowledge of current events because you seldom see them reading. You wonder and wonder and wonder. They don't tell you.

There are two wonderful colored banks in Washington; it would be a lovely idea for you to write about them."—M.M.G.
My dear M.M.G.: Thinkest thou that I have nothing but time to waste extolling the accomplishments and merits of the Negro race. Egad, my dear, is not every other writer, speaker, preacher, teacher, and whatnot crying from the housetop what wonders the Negro has wrought during the last sixty years? Such antics on my part would be the mere repetition of tommytop from a million babbling tongues. I, forsooth, essay another course. Not for me, my dear, to look back over ground already trod and say, "These are my works of which I am well pleased."
Let the sages on the hilltop speak of these things. Let the men of great learning talk of schools and business. Such things are exceedingly dull to me, and so are men of learning. Let me, M.M.G., stand on the sidelines in cap and bells and laugh. Negroes take themselves so seriously that it takes a brave man to play the fool. Above all, M.M.G., let me not be a coward.
And banks? Why should I write of them? They are quite partial and discriminating in their attitudes. Why is it, pray tell, that they let some folk, no more or less than I, walk in and draw out gangs of money and give me nothing but a merry ha! ha! Why do they pick on me? I ask you, M.M.G., why do they pick on me? Is it just because I didn't put any money in their old bank?

Dawn—
A new born babe
Fresh as the driven snow;
All innocent
And blushing
Rosy-red.
Morn—
A maiden, shy
And coy and all demure;
The promise
Of a ripe
Maturity.
Noon—
A glorious woman,
Fair and sweet and pure;
Complete fulfillment
Of "Dame Nature's"
Dream.
Dusk—
A matron, tottering
Toward the setting sun;
With backward glances,
Ever and
Anon.
Dark—
A lump of clay
That palpitates no more;
No soull! No spirit!
Ah! Just cold, cold
Clay.

GARY MAN WRITES
NEW BOOK
A Leverett Webster, well known young Gary writer whose pamphlet supporting the Republican party created a state-wide sensation in the November elections, will soon have another publication coming off the press, it was learned this week.
A message in the form of a souvenir pamphlet is Mr. Webster's latest work. Copies of it will be sent to every state governor, all state legislators, each congressman and to other prominent and conspicuous statesmen of this nation. It is a plea in behalf of the Negro's cause.
A few copies of the pamphlet will be available to the public, says the writer. Mr. Webster lives at 2364 Massachusetts street.
Let cheery word or happy look,
Let blooming flower or gentle rain,
Let all that's sweet and true, again
Say that I love you.
In joy or sorrow, loss or gain,
Know that I love you.
When birds wing south, or home
again.
Know that I love you.
Let faith and hope and joy or peace
Or chilly death that brings relief
Let sun and stars or sighs and
tears,
And all the changes of the years
Say that I love you.
FROID MORT
Sometimes I think you're not so cold
As people say you are; so grue-
some
That men will shudder
When tales of you are told.
Cold Death!
Sometimes I feel that you are good
Since in your solemn visitations
You crush heart aches;
Yet others spring, as those once
stood.
Cold Death!
You are not as we picture you,
A cruel monster sent to steal life
From unsuspecting men,
And end this worldly strife!
Cold Death!
One day I'll come into thy home
And talk with you, beside your
fireside;

This is an easy way to earn a dollar.
A long time ago, there was a prince of Flanders, who wanted to be married—and marry he would. So one day when his coach was ready he set out looking for a wife. At dawn he came to a small town where every one was joyful and merry.
He asked one man what was going on and he learned that the king of England's daughter would marry any man who could capture the largest dog in the world and bring it to her.
The prince set off at once. He rode many days and nights until he came to a haunted house. The brave prince went in. But just as he opened the door he heard a voice say, "Come in, stranger, and in the other room."
He went in the room and saw no one, but he heard a voice say, "Go in the other room."
He went in the other room and there was nothing in there but lots of colwebs, but another voice said, "Go in the next room."
So he went in and there, in a corner he saw the smallest dog he had ever seen. The dog could talk. He said to the prince, "I am small, perhaps you think I am not worth taking, but please carry me out of this haunted house and perhaps you will be rewarded."
The prince thought to himself, "well, I can rescue him from this

As he reached the last room in going out a fairy appeared and said, "Kind prince, many men have avoided entering this house because it is haunted. You are brave. Because you rescued the dog I know that you are kind, so I will reward you. Instead of letting the dog be able to talk, I will take his voice from him, whereupon he will grow to his natural size and be of value to you. Now, would you like to make a wish, sir prince?"
"Yes," said the prince, "let the dog grow to be the largest dog in the world."
"Very well," said the fairy. "I will let the dog remain his present size until you get back to England, then when you enter the princess' castle yard, the dog will grow and grow and grow."
The prince returned and everything happened just as the fairy said. When the princess saw the dog she and the prince were married and lived happy for many many many years.
